Days...


... Bella was sitting at home one Friday evening, watching white collar (again) when her phone rang. It was Tomi's birthday and she didn't think there were plans for that night so she was digging into her Bailey's flavoured Haagen daz ice cream when the streaming and excited voice came through the phone (gosh, this girl can be loud). After a five minute conversation, Tomi had managed to threaten her and put their friendship on the line if she didn't show up for the birthday dinner/get together that was happening right now (na wa for short notice oh). Bella knew she couldn't say no, despite the fact that their friendship was new, Bella and Tomi had grown to become quite close in recent months.

After a quick shower and three outfit changes, Bella decided to go with her red micro-mini dress (which everyone thought was a top by the way). She paired them with a fitted pair of seven jeans and red poka dot Vivienne Westwood heels. In her books, she looked nice enough for a get together but not too sluty for clubbing (after all, it's just to show face and come back).

By the time she got to the venue, the 'get together' was in full swing. Alcohol everywhere, alcoholics everywhere, hot chicks, fine boys, 'ha! thank God I dressed well', she thought. ' I would've just disgraced myself here'...

A little background...
Bella is a 25year old, 5ft 4, dark-skinned, sexy behind, beautiful young lady ( as so many people have told her even though she never believed it). She Studied for both her bachelors and masters degrees in development finance at the London School of Economics. She just made partner at a prestigious media, branding and PR company after quitting her job a month ago and she was happy with her life at the moment. Single and happy...

After scanning the room carefully, Bella decided to mingle and mingle she did... She laughed, flirted,
flicked her hair (yes like a white girl), made conversation and caught the attention of most of the guys there...  She was having one of those 'why won't you date me so we can marry and have kids soon' with Mike, one of her guy best friends ( this one was relentless sha) when she saw him...
He looked tall-ish, dark and gorgeous... their eyes locked and it was like a trance, his eyes, his smile, his accent, everything on point... In her mind, they had walked down the aisle and she already had his two kids. She was in heaven.
